- Sister Rosetta Tharpe played this song (March 20, 1915 - October 9, 1973) was an American singer, songwriter, guitarist and recording artist. A pioneer of twentieth-century music, Tharpe attained great popularity in the 1930s and 1940s with her gospel recordings that were a unique mixture of spiritual lyrics and rhythmic/early rock accompaniment. She became gospel music's first crossover artist and its first great recording star, referred to later as "the original soul sister" and "the godmother of rock and roll". She was an early influence on figures such as Little Richard, Johnny Cash, Elvis Presley and Jerry Lee Lewis.[6][4] Added 12/31/20- Some people think this version of the song heritage is correct. en.wikipedia.o....
"The Lonesome Road" is a 1927 song with music by Nathaniel Shilkret and lyrics by Gene Austin, alternately titled "Lonesome Road", "Look Down that Lonesome Road" and "Lonesome Road Blues." It was written in the style of an African American folk song.
The lyricist and composer were both extremely popular recording artists. Gene Austin estimated he sold 80 million records, and Nathaniel Shilkret's son estimated his father sold 50 million records. Joel Whitburn lists recordings by Austin, Bing Crosby, Ted Lewis, and Shilkret (see list of recordings below) as being "charted" at Numbers 10, 12, 3 and 10, respectively.[1] There are no reliable sales figures that can be used to verify or dispute any of the estimates above.
Rhiannon Giddens sings Sister Rosetta Tharpe - two of my all time favorite singers. Wow.
This is not a Rosetta Thorpe song she is just another person that sang it

How fortunate are we that there is still such great talent arising. I had never heard of this girl before. I won't forget her now.

Sister Rosetta Tharpe played this song (March 20, 1915 - October 9, 1973)
Preciosa cantante, e impresionante voz ...
Yay, Rhiannon!!
Why she took a great song and did a horrible job
She is a national treasure.
Just some girl that has made a time of singing other peoples music and as far as this song goes doing a horrible job!
@@macisaac-crusoe-books9711 You're really having a bad day.
@@allanbriggs807 why is that?
@@macisaac-crusoe-books9711 Surely it's pretty obvious. Rhiannon Giddens has a great voice - has been critically acclaimed worldwide. She has researched a lot of the old roots music and has revived it so we can again listen to it. Look up Wiki to see her achievements. You don't have to like her, but to say she "does a horrible job" is just ridiculous. When I first read your comment I thought you were just stirring - then read a second comment further down. Hence me comment "You must be having a bad day." Pretty simple my friend.
And yes I've seen her live twice (not in the US).
@@allanbriggs807 yeah so if I don`t like something then I must be having a bad day right?, NO I just don`t like it and I am free to say so! really simple dude, And my other comment was for all of the people that somehow seem to think that this song is hers or was Sister Rosetta Tharpe` when it is neither. Maybe you should Google the song, research it, see who wrote it, listen to the original and the dozens of variations over the decades, you know actually educate yourself on it instead of just thinking that I should be insulted for expressing my thoughts about the fact that I don`t like the way that she has trashed the song
Eu só fico me deleitando com esse som. É bom demais menina!!!
Beautiful woman ❤️🌹😘
Can we leave race out? I don't care if white,black,green,pink! We are all Gods children and boy what a beautiful gift he gave to mankind and so glad she shared her talent with us!
Very smooth
Extraordinaria.
SOLID GOLD
She reminds me of the late and beautiful Lena Horne - who overcame so much......in her career !
Gorgeous
I could listin to her read the phonebook.
vaughaner50 Hahahaha! Me too! 🤩🤩🤩🤩👏👏👏
Rhiannon sure looks pretty in that dress.
❤
Did not introduce Hubby Jenkins, guitarist to her left, probably did earlier in the concert. Jenkins is a prodigy.
She introduced him on Austin City Limits.
rewelacja
Myślałem, że jestem jedynym Polakiem, który jej słucha . No to teraz jest co najmniej dwóch
@@mauriceperigord4612 Oh, I had to Google your name, but now, I get it. The first quote in the box under his picture on Google explains it all.
biennnnnnnnnnnnn
Lonesome road
She is from the Carolina Chocolate Drops
You mention the Scots ,Irish,etc heritage but fail to state the obvious. She's black. One of the biggest influences of all. Why you yanks are so bigotted I will never know. Yes she is black and all the rest and bloody good and a great performer and very easy to look at. I wish her all the luck coming to her.
yeah! Rhiannon is light skined 'cause her parents are pure white dad and black mom as I've read they just married when laws about forbidden interracial couples were changed in their state ..I can' t imagine how Rihannon suffered...But here she is... the prettiest and most talented hybrid ever!!!
You call it what you like! I don't care , any colour is good with me. It depends on the person inside. Rhiannon is ' light skinned' but her music is influenced by her background which patently, is black. So what? A great musician and entertainer. Emancipation in America was 150 years ago. Why still the predice?
I think the same bro!!! Color don't matters!!!...but sometimes we should learn about some people past... Best regards!!!
Same for you!!! I'm from Barcelona
Greetings friend!
Damn Rhiannon got her red dress on.... I never seen her in a dress, It's nice and she looks good..... but idk just don't seem like her somehow!
I think it is because she maintains a serious demeanor, and doesn’t do the feminine/performer smiling thing or try to present that way.
Prince Harry on the drums
A horrible insult to this song and it`s history, a really horrible rendition!
You must be having a bad day.
@@allanbriggs807 no Allen I just know the song and she is ruining it, I mean she is welcome to trash it however she wants to in her interpretation but that doesn`t mean I have to like it. I personally think it is a shame to take a song that is almost 100 years old and totally screw up the tempo, the arrangement and the whole vibe of the some. Maybe if she is as good as everyone seem to think she can come up with some more original music of her own.
Your an idiot
